When you see someone share their premium increase this week, bite your tongue about universal healthcare. Americans KNOW this is a shitty deal forced on them. They still need their meds and doctors.
You don't pull over at a car accident and say "well *my* car is fine".

This is one of my favourite photos on this subject. "Four men struggle to put a fridge on an American style truck… and it doesn't even fit safely."

That’s why table salt, sodium chloride (NaCl), doesn’t explode when you put it in water, while SODIUM explodes in water.
Claiming thimerosal is mercury is like saying water (H2O) is the same as hydrogen gas (H2).
Or glucose (C6H12O6) is the same as diamonds (C atoms).

it should be in September or maybe early October like the Canadians! it's a harvest festival and it would also mean not having the bizarre 'go and see your family twice within a month' thing with Christmas
